The most egregious strategy was denying the NiMH battery to BEVs.
Perhaps, but it does seem to have encouraged the use of LiIon batteries
instead, for EVs, which is a far better technology.
NiMH is perhaps twice as "good" as lead in energy density. FAR better
in terms of longevity and reliability. Had development and use not been
restricted, NiMH could well be competitive with lithium today. Whatever
the future might have held for NiMH, we will never know; GM denied EVs
the use of NiMH and EVs were lead for TEN LONG YEARS until lithium was
well developed. I contend that justifies a deep distrust of GM and
other ICE manufacturers.
